Dear Traders,
We are increasing SWAP for crypto instruments on Meta Trader 4 accounts from 10% up to 18% per annum. This decision is caused by the recent increased volatility on the crypto currency market.

From my first day of my career I have been following technical analysis to get signal. Among two types of analysis technical analysis gets more priority to the traders. Because Forex market moves technically. I like technical analysis more. As a scalper and technical analyzer I have selected Trade12 because this provides the highest tools for technical analysis and provides technical news with signal on daily basis. They also provide the best economic calendar to the traders.

FXOpen is happy to announce the launch of Cashback Program. It allows traders to receive an additional refund for any kind of trades including loss-making. It's easy to get cashback: it's added automatically to your Commission account with no further actions. The cashback amount is determined in accordance with the total margin used on all client's trading accounts.

You can benefit from the Cashback Program during the first 90 days from the moment of registration in FXOpen. The minimum cashback is $5, the maximum is $1,000. The maximum cashback per trade is $100.



How to calculate Cashback?

The Standard commission (a percentage of the FXOpen commission) equals 2.4 pips (5-decimal pricing) per trade in an STP account and 15% of the commission for ECN and Crypto accounts.

The table below shows coefficients for cashback calculation. The right column of the table illustrates the cashback calculation of the Standard Commission of $15.
